Re: Nerdy Knotties

  • I am nerdy enough that there's no need to detail all the little individual ways in which I am a nerd. I just am.
    On bed rest since Groundhog's Day and every day since has been exactly the same.

  • Heh.  Hi.  I'm wadingmoose and I'm a nerd.  I play WoW pretty exclusively right now mainly because I'm trying to limit my nerd time outside of the office.I used to play Sims, and I love the Raving Rabbids games for the Wii.  Wii Sports too.

  • Big nerd here. I love Patapon on the PSP. FI and I also play board games all the time like Settlers of Catan.

  • I'm offended, the correct term is geek.

  • That sounds more like "dork" and not so much "nerd" to me.
  • I play the first Zelda, Kirby, Duck Hunt, Mario 1-3, and Little Nemo on my NEX. I also have started playing Luigi's Mansion with one of my little ones.

  • Ahhh, lpstl, you might be more accurate.
  • Mr Stack and I beat Halo together.  I found it to be the highlight of my month when we did that.
  • I play internet Settlers of Catan

  • I play the Sims on the 'puter sometimes, and I play Rock Band all the time on the PS3.  We have a Wii that we hardly ever use, but when I do, I love this stupid game on there that I can't remember the name of- you shoot little creatures with a zapper.  I love computer puzzle games, though.  I also like just puzzles in general.

  • Bint- What do you think of Settlers? I was thinking about buying it for FI for Christmas.

  • That sounds more like "dork" and not so much "nerd" to me.Yeah.  I typically prefer not to be called a whale's peen.

  • Actually buttaflai has a point. Are we talking about people who have shirts with smartazz comments in binary (geek) or people who play dance dance revolution (dork). HUGE difference.

  • What is this talk of internet Settlers?!?  Is it the same as the boardgame?  We play Civ IV and League of Legends on PC and Castle Crashers on the XBox.  DH plays a lot of other games, but those are really the only ones we play together these days.  We also play countless board games and card games...  Settlers of Catan, Arkham Horror, Killer Bunnies, Fluxx, some classics like Trivial Pursuit and Sequence... 
  • I love how even geeks need to categorize themselves.

  • See, dork has more of a negative connotation to me.  I'm proud to be a nerd or a geek, but I hate when people call me a dork.  I would agree, though, with lpstl's assessment of the difference.
  • I don't have the time/inclination to get into a ton of games. But we have a PS3. It seems to mostly function as a DVD/Blue-Ray player.I do like Little Big Planet. And Sid Caesar's Civilization. And NHL '09. And of course guitar hero/rock band. We have 2 guitars, the microphone and the drums.

  • Of course the BEAVER doesn't want to be called a whale's peen.

  • We used to play CoH/CoV,  and now he occasionally plays Champions Online

  • I really wish they would make sims 3 for the wii or something, I dont want to play it on the computer. I really only like sims for the house building and decorating though, playing the actual game bores me. Im more of a comic book nerd, than a video game nerd though, to be honest.
  • Classic moment (I'll let you classify it): my cousin turns to me while we're watching one of the Star Wars movies and says, "So, which one of the bounty hunters is your favorites? Mine's Boba Fett."I just stared at him and said, "are you kidding me?"There's about a 15 year age difference between us, but we get along pretty well.

  • I play Sims on the computer all the time but right now the FI and I's favorite game is House of the Dead. I think the Zombieland movie brought on the zombie killing need for us!
